The Age-Specific Quantitative Effects of Metabolic Risk Factors on Cardiovascular Diseases and Diabetes: A Pooled Analysis (2013, methodology): “All-cause as well as CVD and cancer mortality risk was lowest at 20–22.4 kg/ m2 in the National Cancer Institute Cohort Consortium when the first 15 years of follow-up and ever-smokers were excluded (noting that all but one cohort had used self-reported weight and height) [14].”

The Epidemiology of Obesity: A Big Picture (2015, background): “term cohort studies, as well as three recent major syntheses of pooled data from established cohorts [89–91], which adequately accounted for history of smoking and chronic disease status, unequivocally show that overweight and obesity over the life course is associated with excess risk of total mort”
Analysis and valuation of the health and climate change cobenefits of dietary change (2016, methodology): “Given the availability of consistent epidemiological data, we focused on changes in the consumption of red meat, and of fruits and vegetables, which together accounted for more than half of dietrelated deaths in 2010 (4), and also on the fraction of people who are overweight or obese through excess ”
